ASTM D6110 is a standard published by the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) that focuses on evaluating the impact resistance of plastics using the Charpy impact test. This widely recognized test evaluates plastics’ toughness and ability to withstand sudden impacts by subjecting notched specimens to a swinging pendulum. The amount of energy absorbed during impact is measured, providing valuable information about the material’s resistance to impact and its suitability for different applications.

ASTM D6110 provides a comprehensive framework for conducting the Charpy impact test, covering important aspects such as specimen preparation, test conditions, and results calculation and reporting. Following this standard ensures consistent and reliable testing practices across different laboratories, allowing for meaningful comparisons of different plastic materials.

Class J – Charpy and Izod Automatic Impact Testing System complies with ASTM D6110 standard.
